We present a case of toxic epidermal necrolysis ( TEN ) triggered by clobazam in a 13‐year‐old girl who was subsequently treated with intravenous immunoglobulin. In December 2013 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released a warning that clobazam might cause “serious skin reactions” such as Stevens–Johnson syndrome or TEN and approved label changes.
